The last week was a bit of a blur due to three early morning swims ranging from 1,800 to 2,100 yards, having to turn over the cabin six times over the course of the week, and having two of my sisters staying with us and a third in the area. With that as a backdrop, we also got in some hiking boot shopping, had dinner with our friends Mark and Kathy, attended (and picked up pizza for) the monthly Chassell Lions Club meeting, put in some volunteer time at the Chassell Heritage Center, picked five pounds of blueberries at the Gierke Blueberry Farm, had dinner with family and friends at Nutinni’s in Hancock, went hiking at Maasto Hiihto with our friends Wolf and Carolyn, and spent time talking around an evening into night campfire along with my sisters at our neighbors Lee and Barb’s place. With all that, we still got in the all important North Country Trail hike to build the mileage toward our #hike100NCT goal!
